About the Indianapolis Motor Speedway Museum
Located on the Indianapolis Motor Speedway grounds in Speedway, Indiana, United States, the Indianapolis Motor Speedway Museum covers automotive history. It is closely tied to the Indianapolis 500 and the Brickyard 400, yet its exhibits also cover other forms of motorsport, passenger cars and car history in general. The Hall of Fame of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway is housed there too.
April 7, 1956 saw the first Speedway museum finished, to a design by C. Wilbur Foster and Associates, at the corner of 16th Street and Georgetown Road. It opened with only six cars, among them Ray Harroun's car, the 1911 Indianapolis 500 winner. Karl Kizer became the first curator, and donations soon outgrew the space.
In 1975 the Speedway broke ground on a new museum and administration building of 96,000 square feet (8,900 m2) inside the track's infield. It welcomed visitors from April 5, 1976, during the United States Bicentennial year. The museum is owned and run independently, under Indianapolis Motor Speedway Foundation, Inc., and April 2016 brought its official new name.
